Highwaters, pinstripes, and pleats – oh my! Proceed with caution, gentlemen, the 90s are back in full swing and the Autumn/Winter 2015 men’s collection for General Idea is not for the faint of heart – but rather for the fashion forward. With footwear provided by Dr. Marten, this collection makes a very clear statement. We’re not super keen on pleated pants in general, or high water trousers, but the dark, woolen fabrics and the simple, streamlined knit sweaters are definitely something we can get behind. A favorite? The color-blocked, full-length, sleeveless, wool coat – out of a relatively jarring collection, this piece is truly to die for.
